This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts（花生）, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: let the coin decide. I flipped(掷) a coin and Ah! Tails (背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.
Weeks later, I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange. I looked around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was completely lost. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”
Oh well, I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of Independence.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?
Of course, my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly(坚决地): No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair, and I believed I should have a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmaster’s office again, but this time a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year when the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip(跳过) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term.
1.________ helped me decide what my report would be about.
A. My classmates B. A coin
C. My grandpa D. The Internet
2.I read my homework proudly because ________.
A. I believed my homework was excellent
B. I was good at my lessons
C. my classmates wore big smiles on their faces
D. my grandfather was always right
3.I ________ after I failed the subject.
A. worked harder to prove my ability
B. did my homework a second time
C. was so frightened at the awful result
D. decided to give it up
4.We can infer(推断) from the passage that ________.
A. the headmaster wasn’t a good person at all
B. the writer’s classmates were cleverer than him
C. the writer knew little about American history
D. the writer’s grandpa was a very wise man
5.Which of the following can best describe the writer?
A. Silly and lazy. B. Clever but unlucky.
C. Proud and confident. D. Brave and hard-working.

It was near Christmas during my first term teaching at a new school. I loved my small special class more than any group I had taught in the past. They were hungry for knowledge and I was enjoying teaching.
Other teachers had told me that our children were from poor families and not to expect any child to bring a Christmas gift. In fact, I wasn’t expecting any gifts.
Imagine my surprise when every child brought me a gift on the day before our holiday break. First, I got a much-loved toy monkey from a shy girl. I was told, “He is my favorite, but I love you and I want him to be with you, Miss Taylor.” How thrilled I was!
Next came a new set of Christmas tree lights that was “missing” from a mother’s cupboard(碗橱).
Finally, I came to one little boy’s gift which I had never received. It was an old, dirty and broken Christmas storybook. Just when I wanted to show my happiness, I was interrupted(打断) by the giver, “And see, it is new! It still has the price tag（标签）.”
When other children laughed at him, I stopped them and said, “Oh, books are good in that way. The story is always new if you have not read it before. Now, Let’s read one together.” Everyone listened quietly as I read the most wonderful Christmas story of my life.
I still keep those Christmas gifts. They always remind me of my lovely kids.
1.Miss Taylor loved her small special class so much because______________.
A. this was her first term teaching at a new school
B. these little kids were from rich families
C. the students studied very hard and she enjoyed teaching them
D. she didn’t get any Christmas gifts
2. ____________ brought Miss Taylor a Christmas gift.
A. Every child B. Most of the children C. Only three children D. No one
3.Miss Taylor felt __________ when she got the gifts from the children.
A. sad B. scared C. thrilled D. tired
4.Many gifts were mentioned (被提及) in the article except____________.
A. a toy monkey B. an old storybook

Anna was excited about starting her first day in the new school. However, when she first walked past the students in the school, her excitement turned to fear, and then to loneliness over the next few days. “Why didn’t anyone say ‘hi’ to me or invite me to his or her lunch table? Is it because of my clothes or my hair?” she wondered. Almost every day during the first week, Anna stayed alone, thinking that there must have been something wrong with her or that nobody saw her at all!
What caused Anna’s problem? The reason was that nobody knew her. Most people don’t like talking with strangers. So it’s your job to volunteer to make contact with people who you want to know. The easiest way to catch their attention is to notice them first. Make eye contact with them and smile at them. When you smile at them, you are doing your best to show your kindness to them, and they are sure to understand that you are saying, “Hey, how’s everything going?” In this way, you are taking the first step towards the road to friendship.
When Anna realized this, she started talking to her classmates. Guess what happened? It really worked. She had made two friends by the end of the month.
In fact, saying “hi” or making friends with strangers is not hard. And the joy it brings you is really great. So try to open your heart to strangers!
1.What was Anna’s problem?
A. She was afraid of entering a new school. B. She had no friends in her new school.
C. She didn't like making friends with strangers. D. Her classmates didn't like her clothes or hair.
2.Which of the following shows the change in Anna’s feelings?
A. afraid→relaxed→nervous→happy B. happy→lonely→sad→proud
C. nervous→angry→happy →sad D. excited→afraid→lonely→happy
3.According to the writer, what is the easiest way to catch others’ attention?
A. Noticing them first B. Talking to them
C. Doing something for them. D. Making yourself cool.
4.What can you learn from the passage?
A. Teenagers can't get along well with each other.
B. Loneliness is a common problem these days.
C. Opening our heart to strangers can help us get friends.
D. It’s hard to take the first step towards the road to friendship.
